19 Feb 2021#28 - Chris Bevan00:44:19

Tony is delighted to be joined by Chris Bevan on Episode #28 of the Inside Track podcast.

Chris has been designing and orchestrating the delivery of transformational change for over 35 years. The past 25 years he has been privileged to lead a number of assignments across different industries, in the UK, USA and Europe. His approach to transformational change focuses on the structural, operational, human, behavioural and cultural elements of transformation and change that enable delivery through the pull of the changes by people within the organisation. This significantly reduces the risk of adoption. The approach is that of a player-coach and is very “hands on” but through the lifecycle of the programme it enables the transition of leadership within the team to enable true internal ownership of change and benefit realisation.

It's a really great discussion - I'm sure you'll get lots from Chris

About Mel

Mel is passionate about helping organisations, government and the third sector humanise transformation. Humanising transformation leads to accelerated success because you can; 1. Reach for a future beyond the limits of what you know today. 2. Help every individual find meaning that connects them positively with that future. 3. Get people started on that journey through following active, role model leaders. She believes that it is leaders who hold the key that unlocks human centred transformation in the first instance. And yet, this is a gravely under supported area of the business – why do we suppose transformation is something you simply know how to do if you are a leader or a particular expert? The mindset, behaviours and competencies required to humanise transformation and succeed are specific.

15 Mar 2024A discussion with Niki Avraam - Rethinking Traditional Leadership Beliefs in Organisational Transformation00:47:04

In this enriching episode of the Transformation Leaders podcast, Tony is joined by Niki Avraam, a dynamic lawyer, entrepreneur, and change agent.

Niki opens about her unconventional approach to law. She narrates the distinctive, transformative journey in the legal field that defied traditional norms and paved her path to success. Nikki's narrative highlights how rounding off the edges of traditional law practices can unlock doors to innovative practices, contribute to societal change, and drive you towards a fulfilling career.

As an intrinsically motivated ‘legal entrepreneur’, Nikki turned the tables within the legal profession. Nikki discusses her co-founding a commercial law firm in London and reveals the secret sauce - a work environment that cherishes diversity and encourages autonomy. This episode delves deep into Nikki's aspirations for the future workforce, a unique blend of leadership combined with personal life experiences that form a canvas of her professional accomplishments, and her perspective on transformation.

Underlying our deep-dive into Nikki’s passion for challenging the status quo is a compelling discussion on the essence of storytelling, transformation, and the ‘why'. Emphasizing the importance of operating outside comfort zones, we delve into fostering an adaptable, innovative approach to problems. Experience a discussion challenging traditional structures, especially in sectors like law, and uncover strategies to navigate resistance while aligning with the organization's vision.

Listen in as we zero in on organizational growth principles, focusing on setting clear company values, understanding key stakeholder needs, tailoring messages to their viewpoints, and fostering an innovative, fail-friendly environment. We conclude with insights into how a growth mindset can become a catalyst for organizational transformation. Join us in this riveting chat as we explore the landscape of change, transformation, and leadership with purpose.

In today's show, Tony is delighted to be joined on the virtual sofa by Alice Mellor.

Unlike many people operating within the Transformation space, Alice's career has been focused on just one sector of industry, Financial Services.  However, as she will explain, this hasn't in any way reduced the variety of the programmes she has led and been involved in.

Having started my career in FS, I can fully appreciate the full spectrum of opportunities the sector has presented to her.  I was particularly interested to hear about how she handled the different cultures that she has found in the various organisations, especially her experience of being taken over by a larger 'player'

I'm sure that you will find the show highly informative.

22 Dec 2023A discussion with Barry Robbins00:39:35

Tony's guest today is Barry Robbins. During the show, Barry shares his view that he rarely sees a technology project fail because of technology. Technology is often symptomatic of larger issues, and we let it take the blame rather than recognizing the true challenges brought about by change. Often, it is poor leadership, planning, decision-making, processes, or risk management that are the real barriers to success. Blaming technology just helps us fail harder and more expensively. A really interesting discussion.

Richard's career is a little different from most of the people that we have had on the podcast, in that he has come from a legal background, where he worked on settling contractual conflicts around major change initiatives. He realised that there were some key themes and started to move along the 'food-chain' and now works with organisations to ensure that programmes are established in the right way and all relevant parties (internal/ external) are actively involved in the start up process. This ensures that contracts are written in a way that allows for agility and are structured to facilitate a win win scenario This is definitely not one to miss!

06 Dec 2024Bridging Project & Change Management in 2025 - a Discussion with Alicia James00:39:24

In this episode of the Transformation Leaders Podcast, Tony Lockwood interviews Alicia James, a seasoned change management professional and author of Mars and Venus: How Project Managers and Change Managers Can Work Together for the Greater Good.

Elisa shares her journey into change management, her perspectives on transformation, and insights from her book.

Here's what you'll learn:

The Distinction Between Change and Transformation: Alicia explains the nuances of change versus transformation, emphasizing that transformation is a significant, organization-wide shift that redefines operations, culture, and business models, unlike smaller-scale, incremental changes.

The Dynamics of Change Management: Elisa shares her entry into the field, initially through challenging circumstances, and her evolution into a thought leader. She discusses strategies for effective stakeholder engagement, navigating resistance, and the critical role of change impact assessments.

The Collaborative Relationship Between Project and Change Managers: Drawing from her book, Elisa highlights the often-overlooked necessity for project managers and change managers to collaborate effectively. She underscores the importance of integrating change efforts from the outset to ensure projects deliver their intended benefits.

This episode is packed with practical advice and real-world insights for anyone navigating the complexities of transformation, making it a must-listen for leaders and change practitioners alike.
